While I didn't write my own post (just too crazy those first few days of school) I still have my idea in mind. I may try to write it after our Voyage this week (overnight trip with my first graders). I am enjoying reading all of the posts and getting lots of great book ideas. Thanks for doing this.<br />JillJill Fischhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13162764425985636884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519338898878388762.post-39345902625882193762011-08-13T00:31:16.512-04:002011-08-13T00:31:16.512-04:00Ah yes... to be an author AND an illustrator would...Ah yes... to be an author AND an illustrator would be wonderful. <br /><br />I too love lots of author/illustrator combinations, but especially Lynley Dodd and Pamela Allen.

It is so powerful to use a picture book as a read aloud for teachers that is meaningful to them AND connects to their teaching! Here is my list! If you are a teacher of teachers, I'd love to hear from you! :-)<br />http://theliteratemind.blogspot.com/Shari Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04102648925008152040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519338898878388762.post-43414143757880896002011-08-11T21:50:31.658-04:002011-08-11T21:50:31.658-04:00Cathy~

I really enjoyed your twist on the event, too! Robert Munsch always seems to be an author who is always overlooked. His books are always re-read after I've shared them with my students!
